I don’t know about the general shopping population of SL but I will never, ever have enough shoes in my inventory. Yes, I have oodles of pumps and slingbacks, but each time I see new shoes - I want them. All of them. Especially when they’re this good.
The Juicy label of shoes is limited to two types right now (just the yummy yummy pumps and yummy yummy slingbacks) but the sculpted shapes are top-notch and the texture sheen is luscious.
There are a variety of colors all of which are available separately or in different bundles. Did I squee yet? Can you feel the squee?
Okay, so the heels are break-your-neck-in-RL high and some of the color selections have a stripper pole kinda edge to them, but they’re also fun and flirty and while the L$500 a pair price might make a few take pause, the L$2950 pack of 20 colors brings the per pair cost down to under L$150.
Besides, it’s SL. You know there’s a bright orange cocktail dress out there somewhere.
Where To Buy
Pair (Slingbacks or Pumps) - L$500
Theme Packs (3 Pairs) - L$950
Mega Rainbow Packs (12 Pairs) - L$2600
Everything Packs (20 Pairs) - L$2950

omg yes i agree with you aenea of course sculpties are alot of work and the programs do cost alot of money but sculpties also probably sell better?
my problem with sculpties is i tend not to rez them as fast as my friends claim they rez
i usually find myself in a store trying on a demo and going to smoke a cigarette or going to get a drink and coming back to find my av still wearing balls on her feet or her head… i take a good 10 minutes to rezz sculpties
so i shy away from sculptie hair and shoes which i must say are harder to find now but when i do find them i sqweee!!!!!!!!!!!

umm they look fab but 500 each is abit much and to get at a great price u need to buy the big pack ( so its 150 each ) then thers colours i wouldnt use or would feel i needed to wear all these and never buy shoes again ( omg NEVER ) ok i couldnt cope with that either
may live in hope the price comes down coz they do look great

I bought the “everything” fatpack of classic pumps, and I have to say,, they are wonderful, the textures, shading etc is great. But, some in some sims, they simply do not rez properly, which is a shame, lets hope SL fixes itself in time!! Also, I have a problem with the vendor when I bought them, in that I did not get them in my inventory, which was quite worrying, but having spoke to Elven, I foun myself very quickly having the shoes sent to me. Very helpful as well as great shoes!!
